"It shouldn't matter who earns more...": Nimrat Khaira says earnings shouldn't define relationships

Nimrat Khaira discusses equality in relationships ahead of 'Viyaah Kartaare Da' release with Gippy Grewal. A comedy about love & societal expectations.

"It shouldn't matter who earns more. What matters is being like-minded and tuning in together. - Nimrat Khaira"

New Delhi, February 20

The trailer of 'Viyaah Kartaare Da', an upcoming Punjabi comedy-romantic entertainer, has set the stage for what promises to be a vibrant big-screen wedding celebration.

Slated for a worldwide theatrical release on February 27, the film brings together Gippy Grewal and Nimrat Khaira in the lead roles.

Directed by Smeep Kang, known for delivering hit Punjabi comedies, the film is described as "pure, delightful chaos" set against the backdrop of a grand Punjabi wedding.

The trailer opens with a marriage conversation scene in which Nimrat's on-screen father questions Gippy's character, Kartar, asking, "What do you do for a living?" -- a query often posed by parents during traditional marriage discussions. The sequence sets the tone for a narrative that blends humour with subtle social observations.

Responding to a question about evolving societal mindsets around earnings and status in relationships, Nimrat Khaira emphasised the importance of equality and mutual respect between partners.

"Of course. Wherever we go, we should prioritise happiness and mutual respect. We should treat our parents and partners with understanding. It shouldn't matter who earns more. What matters is being like-minded and tuning in together. That's what truly makes a relationship strong," she said.

The actor-singer also acknowledged that parental concerns largely stem from their desire to see their daughters happy and secure. However, she maintained that compatibility, shared values and emotional understanding ultimately matter more than financial comparisons.

The film highlights the sparkling on-screen chemistry between Grewal and Khaira, while an ensemble cast featuring Gurpreet Ghuggi, Prince Kanwaljit Singh, BN Sharma and Deep Sehgal adds layers of comedy and drama to the narrative.

Trailer glimpses also include humorous exchanges involving police salutes and references to bribery, hinting at situational comedy woven into the wedding festivities.

Musically, the soundtrack features tracks such as 'Tera Hassa' and 'Vlog,' with vocals by Gippy Grewal and Nimrat Khaira.

The film is backed by Dharma Productions, Humble Motion Pictures and Pitaara Talkies.

Easier said than done, Nimrat ji. In the real India, especially in arranged marriage scenarios, "What do you do?" is the first and most important question. Parents want security for their children, and income is a big part of that. The mindset is changing, but slowly.

Smeep Kang and Gippy combo is always a riot! The trailer looks hilarious. The police salute scene had me in stitches. Forget the message, I'm going for the pure entertainment. 😂

It's a beautiful sentiment, and I agree mutual respect is key. But as an outsider married into an Indian family, I've seen firsthand how deeply ingrained these financial expectations are. It's a complex issue that needs more than just a film's dialogue to change.

Finally, a sensible take. A relationship is about partnership, not a salary competition. If both are working hard and contributing to the home, that's what matters. More power to such thoughts!

While I appreciate the message, the film itself seems to use this as a setup for comedy in a typical Punjabi wedding drama. I hope the treatment is respectful and doesn't just mock the parents' concerns. The trailer looks fun though!
